What To Do When; Trouble Shooting - AEG LAVAMAT W 1020 Instruction Book

What to do when...

The somewhat different, in comparison to older wash-
3
ing machines, whistling noise during spinning is due to
the modern drive system.
A rattling sound on startup – in particular when using
for the first time – is caused by the circulation pump
and is due to the design.
